Good to see him playing a lot better. The Spurs midfield was very disappointing though Ndombele aside and once he went off Winks was a joke. It’s one thing looking good against them and another taking on Fernandes Pogba, De Bruyne Gundogan Rodri, Fabinho Henderson Wijnaldum, Kante Kovacic etc.
It’s not a criticism of Tom, it’s a criticism of pace in the team in general. Even Siggurdson looked half decent against Spurs because they just seemed to vacate the midfield at time sin that game. There’ll be other games though when the lack of pace of the two of them together will be exposed and we’ll find ourselves hemmed in unable to break out of a press.
Our best team in my eyes still had Allan and Docuoure in midfield with Gomes as first sub but it’s good to see nearly every single player in the squad improving under Carlo.
